As we often say, here at AllBum.Art, sometimes a remix for the cover of a record is inspired by the record title, and sometimes by a picture. This remix was inspired by a picture. The original cover of Tongue by R.E.M. shows some blurry photo of what might be a girl. No sign of a tongue of any kind. The remix shows a babe sticking her tongue out at us, though in the process of doing this, she seems to have forgotten to get dressed. Shame!
